Cholesterol Is GOOD For Your Arteries & Statins Are Harmful? Jimmy Dore Show

[Bolt_Upright]

Warnings: 1- Jimmy swears at one point in this video. 2 - If you start watching Jimmy Dore you will get red pilled and you might stop fitting into society.

Of particular interest, near the end, they talk about how Statins interfere with COQ10 and affect mitochondrial activity. Also lots of interesting/sad info on how studies work.

Jimmy Dore is not for everybody. He is a stand up comedian who does some of the best reporting on YouTube.

In this segment Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss some of the lies we’ve been told about how harmful cholesterol is and the major downsides of taking statins.

Yep, demonizing cholesterol and pushing statins is a scam. More on the subject:

My doctor told me I needed to start statins 10 years ago and I was a hard no. Years later my cholesterol always tests fine.

I eat 10 eggs almost every day, my cholesterol has not elevated , latest bloods taken 5 weeks as part of a yearly check.

The whole cholesterol thing is a huge scam.

Yes, and cholesterol is essential to the function of the body and if you had no cholesterol you'd be dead! The brain is so dependant on cholesterol that it makes it itself. youtu.be/I7r4j1u42V8?si=eCm...(Not working as expected?)

My dad was the chief of cardiology for a major hospital. Much to the chagrin of his colleagues, he swore for his entire career that the anti-cholesterol hysteria was nonsense, and when my GP prescribed me statins he begged me to flush them down the toilet.

FWIW, dad lived on cheese, eggs, and steak and lived to be 100. Of course he also drank a fifth of scotch every day and smoked like a chimney, so maybe he was just indestructible. But he was pretty adamant on the cholesterol point, and had a fair amount of science to back it up. (His main point was that inflammation was the main culprit in congestive heart disease -- without irregularities in the arterial walls caused by inflammation, cholesterol can't stick to them.)
